The Red Sox were believed to have some interest in Klesko before signing Sean Casey, but no one else had gone public with any desire to add him. The 37-year-old Klesko hit .260/.344/.401 in 362 at-bats for the Giants last season. Thu, Feb 7, 2008 05:46:00 PM

Joe Panik admitted after Sunday's game that his nagging back stiffness is not improving and that he's growing frustrated.

Panik will see the trainers again on Monday, but it's starting to sound as though he may need a trip to the disabled list. Ehire Adrianza has been filling in during his absence, and would continue to do so should Panik get forced to the DL.

He then went to receive treatment afterwards as he continues his recovery from a degenerative condition in both hips. If he rebounds nicely from this, he could be cleared to begin mound work early next week. There is still no clear timetable for his return to the Giants, and likely no rotation spot available once he does make it back.

Giants placed RHP Tim Hudson on the disabled list with a right shoulder injury.

Hudson spent time on the DL earlier this season with a shoulder ailment, although both times it's looked like a phantom injury. There's no longer a spot in the rotation for the veteran following the acquisition of Mike Leake.
